Well, hello! Or, goodbye...

I realize I haven't posted here since November, but in lieu of posting about past events, suffice it to say that the months in between were great (you can see photos of my trip to China, etc. on Facebook). I was able to take a Croatian (BCS) language class at UW during winter quarter - where I met some great new friends (Lori! Diana! Alsu! Veronica!). Then I worked for 6 weeks as the Interim Administrative Assistant for Urban and Global Missions at UPC, which was a great experience. I got to work with some really nice people who are doing wonderful work. Now, I am getting ready to be out of the country for the summer, and trying to figure out what I will do when the summer is over. I'm hoping that over the course of my travels this summer, God will give me some clarity about future decisions. I've realized over the past several months that I really enjoy being in Seattle and being able to have a "regular" schedule. My Bible study has been wonderful - I will really miss you beautiful women! And I have loved being able to take ballet, go to the gym, go to Nas Klub and BTF, and spend time with my family and all of the friends I have here. I am really leaning toward spending next year in Seattle, though that will mean I will miss friends in other places. Prayers about decisions for the next phase of my life are much appreciated! I'm leaving on May 21st for 4 months in Europe (I know, tough work, but someone has to do it...), and the itinerary is on the righthand side of this page. If you happen to be in a city at the same time as me, I'd love to see you! If not, then I hope you'll keep in touch over the summer. I'll do my best to keep this page updated and promise to reply to emails when I can find internet that's not too expensive!
